Met with @UW President Robert Jones to discuss UW’s priorities and the need to protect higher ed funding. 🎓

With 64,000+ students and growing enrollment, more cuts would make it harder to serve students. I’ll keep pushing for access and opportunity. 💜💛

[Senator T'wina Nobles @SenatorNobles]

Great to meet with student leaders from the Washington Student Association to discuss their priorities this session. 🎓🏛️

We talked basic needs like food access, protecting financial aid, supports for students experiencing homelessness, student data privacy, and graduate aid.

[Senator T'wina Nobles @SenatorNobles]

Good to meet with a Bellevue College student to hear directly why Summer Running Start matters. 📚

Students like Aishna put a real face to the impacts of proposed cuts — and why protecting pathways to college credit and affordability must stay a priority. ❤️

Grateful to everyone who came to the Capitol to support the youth sports resolution. ⚽️🏛️

Hello, Charles Wright Academy! 👋🏾 Having the chance to speak to students and hear their great questions about the work we do in the Legislature is the absolute best. Thanks for coming to the Capitol! ❤️

Proud to support 2⃣ bills that strengthen higher ed & protect students. 🎓

One keeps Workforce Education Investment Account dollars dedicated to student aid, higher ed, & workforce pathways. The other fixes a broken budgeting practice that shifts mandatory costs onto tuition.

Honored to join the Montgomery family for the dedication of Curtis E. Montgomery Street in Tacoma.

Proud to support this renaming as a state senator — our public spaces should honor leaders like Bishop Curtis E. Montgomery who strengthened generations. 🫶🏾

Grateful to the students who testified in support of my bill to ensure access to medication abortion on college and university campuses. 🏛️🫶🏾

Hearing directly from students, including Hailey who worked with my office on this bill, strengthened this work. Thank YOU so much. ✨

WASFA helps students who can’t use FAFSA — including undocumented students — access state financial aid for college, trades, and apprenticeships. 🎓

Education should be within reach.
